GPF and new editor in grid.

[Ivar B. Jessen]

The following bug(s) were mentioned in the programming group by Rod Jones in a
posting with the heading: New grid editor not read-only?

Notice the following setting in the code below,

rowset.fields["Description"].readOnly = true

The bug to be described will also be seen with the setting,

rowset.autoEdit = false


Run the code and scroll to the 'Description' column, click on the first row
and the editor opens. Try editing the text and confirm that it is read-only.
Close the editor by clicking on a different column or row. This results in,

Alert
Error: Property is read only.

Click OK and click on the second row to open the editor in that row. Notice
that it is not possible to open said editor.

After attempting to open the editor in other rows I generally end up with a
GPF.

Notice also that if the setting is,

GRID1.allowEditing = false

it is impossible to open the editor and thus impossible to read more than the
first line of text.

Huh... Where's the code you're talking about, Ivar?

Notice the following setting in the code below,

What code? There was no code in your message.

Post by Ivar B. Jessen
rowset.fields["Description"].readOnly = true
The bug to be described will also be seen with the setting,
rowset.autoEdit = false

Tried your steps with this and can see problems except for the GPF. I
then changed autoEdit to true, and set the description field (of the
Fish table)'s readOnly property to true, and got the same results, but
no GPF.

I've entered QAID: 4665 for this.

Notice also that if the setting is,

it is impossible to open the editor and thus impossible to read more than the

This issue is addressed by the bug report: QAID: 4350.

It's been posted, but I see you used your crystal ball so it is not really
neccessary.
